On this weeks Ebert & Roeper Show, they were discussing Internet movies and now the "Big Guns" are also getting in the act. Here is an interesting, cute short from Ron Howard, narrated by Steven Spielberg:

There are some other cool movies on the same site, like "Ron Howards Dream" and one with Steve Martin. Just go to the home page:

Also dicussed were a few other preety cool on-line movie sites, , however some take forever to download!

I recall about a year ago that Ebert was kind of "diss-ing" these on-line movies, but on this weeks' show his positioned appeared a bit reversed. He seemed to have a more "pro internet movie" take this time.
Did anyone catch the show?
